In January, we went inside the Dilley detention center. Children shared letters describing the anguish of being ripped from their lives: propub.li/4cUHm8L

After publishing that story, we learned about Edison, a 13-year-old from Chicago detained for 2+ months. Listen to Edison in his own words 👇

🤥 @KristiNoem today: “I didn’t call Alex Pretti a domestic terrorist.”

FORTY-SEVEN NEIGHBORS shackled and loaded onto this Global X ICE flight today at Baltimore’s BWI.

There are four ICE flights a week now taking our Maryland neighbors to detention centers down South.

Today in Iran…

HIRONO: DHS was lying that Ms Martinez was a domestic terrorist who ambushed federal agents. Yes or no -- that was a lie?

NOEM: Every day our law enforcement officers face tragic situations--

And they’ve still not been able to resolve the OSU OBGYN he was paying $100k/year with/through Wexner.

In my entire life, I have never had so many rapid-fire fantasies invade my brain all at once.

So does his face.

Cronkite would have done the same thing.

Many once respected “journalists” have been all too eager to offer this service and seem downright giddy to be a part of the story.

Literally everything is projection

Not mistakes so much as on purposes.

3 American soldiers have now been killed because the president wants you to stop thinking about all the children he raped.
